I'm looking at heading up to Beavers Bend after work on Friday to practice my fly fishing before my Oregon trip later this month... I have been to Beavers Bend before but never to fly fish. Do I need to get an Oklahoma license or is it covered within the state park if I am camping in the park?

I know in TX if you are in a state park you dont have to have a license (unless you launch in a boat and are out on open water) so curious if I need to get one or not.

May go ahead and get one anyways incase I decide to venture outside the park but thought I'd ask.

If your anywhere over the State line you'll probably need a Ok license but just ask at any bait shop close by , they can tell you what's needed .

You will need to purchase an out of state license for the time you are there. Unless you are over 64 years of age; then you will only need to show proof of age and Texas residency. I wish states other than Texas offered reciprocity with Oklahoma, as that would save me a lot of money when fishing away from home.

If your 65 you dont need one if you got your Texas license, one day license is $15.00 you can get in at Wal Mart on Hwy 259 in Broken Bow.

You still need an OK license.

Easiest just to buy online but unless they recently stopped the fly shop and heritage center sells them in the park

Thanks guys. I ended up buying one online. I think come January I will just buy the full season one for the entire year... Interesting that they dont offer a 12 month or any type of discount on a "season" one now that will end on Dec 31st. Its the same $55 no matter what time of year you buy and it ends on Dec 31st.

Had a good day last Saturday and will try to get some pics up today.

Ended up with 2 trout, 4 bluegill and 1 small mouth and these are the best 3.

All came on a dry grasshopper fly which was fun... slow most of the day but really picked up right before dusk. All fish were released.
